EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting beauty of Abbazia, now known as Opatija in Croatia. Taken by a European photographer in the 19th century, it showcases the iconic Madonna del Mare statue with the picturesque backdrop of Chiesa dis Maria Annunciata. The image is an illustration for Ricordo di Abbazia, a publication from around 1920 that commemorates this Austrian seaside resort. Today, Opatija stands proudly on the Croatian coast and holds a rich history dating back to its Habsburg era. The town's Mediterranean charm and its proximity to the Adriatic Sea make it a popular holiday destination. In this early 20th-century photograph, one can glimpse not only the stunning coastline but also glimpses of fashionable attire worn during that time period. The villas dotting the landscape add to its allure and speak volumes about its past as an Austrian retreat. With Austrians flocking to Abbazia during their holidays, it became synonymous with luxury and elegance. This image encapsulates that spirit while also highlighting the religious significance of Madonna del Mare against such a breathtaking natural backdrop. As we gaze upon this historic snapshot captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time to experience both the splendor of Abbazia/Opatija and witness how fashion trends have evolved over centuries along Croatia's magnificent coastline.
